“…EGS has been shown to be an effective long-term option in cirrhosis patients with cholelithiasis as a bridge to liver transplantation [13-17]. Studies on EGS have demonstrated a favorable clinical outcome up to 3 years after stenting without any need for routine replacement of the stent [14,15].…”

“…When 10F stents or a gallbladder stent and a biliary stent are placed (eg, for Mirizzi's syndrome), an endoscopic biliary sphincterotomy is performed to prevent post-ERCP pancreatitis. 23,26,[28][29][30][31][32][33] …”

“…23,[28][29][30][31][32][33] In pooled retrospective studies, the success rate of the procedure is relatively high at 96% (95% CI, 91.1%-98.7%). Unlike nasogallbladder drainage tubes, stents cannot be irrigated to prevent occlusion by blood or debris, which causes concern over the drainage effect, but the pooled response rate is 88% (95% CI, 81.2%-93.2%).…”

“…61,62 Some groups have even described stenting of the cystic duct endoscopically using biliary stents from gallbladder to duodenum, in this group of patients awaiting liver transplantation, to relieve symptoms. 74,75 There is an increased risk of morbidity and mortality with common bile duct exploration in patients with CLD, 76,77 with mortality rates as high as 30-50%. 21,77-79 As a result, endoscopic management is preferred when a common bile duct stone is clinically suspected in these patients.…”

“…Endoscopic drainage of the gallbladder has been added in some cases but remains an uncommon procedure. 74,75 Alternatively, percutaneous cholecystostomy may reverse the progression of inflammation in patients with cholecystitis and often provides symptomatic relief. 96 Percutaneous cholecystostomy is a radiologic procedure that requires only local anesthesia and could be carried out in an Intensive Therapy Unit setting.…”
